§ 219.1005 - Applicability.

(a)(i) Architect-engineering services in support of military construction projects or military family housing projects are exempt from the Small Business Competitiveness Demonstration Program, except for the emerging small business (ESB) set-aside requirements. Accordingly, these shall—

(A) Be reviewed for possible award under the 8(a) Program regardless of dollar value.

(B) Not be set aside for small business if the estimated value is $350,000 or more (including indefinite delivery-indefinite quantity contracts if the value of all anticipated orders exceeds $350,000).

(C) Be considered for ESB set-aside if the estimated value is both less than the emerging small business reserve amount and less than $350,000.

(D) Be considered for small business set-aside if the estimated value is less than $350,000, regardless of whether small business set-asides for other architect-engineer services are prohibited under the Small Business Competitiveness Demonstration Program, when an ESB set-aside is not appropriate.

(ii) All requirements of the Small Business Competitiveness Demonstration Program apply to architect-engineer services in support of other than military construction projects or military housing objects, which otherwise meet criteria in FAR subpart 19.10.
